writers who want to address a wide and varied audience within South Asia, even if that audience may not be very large. English functions in modern India like Latin in the European Renaissance, as a second language shared by enough people to make it a good vehicle of communication among various groups who share a certain level of linguistic skill. It is often claimed that writers creating fiction in English are simply cashing in on a Western appetite for exotica, and perhaps the charge has an element

While de-centralized government is often a good thing for businesses, if allowed to go unchecked – in tax collection, for example, with varying rates and processes for each commune and canton – it can result in unwieldy, multi-layered bureaucracy.

This is good news for the reputation of those mountains that are very close to the equator—like Mount Chimborazo in the Andes—but it also means accepting that even the beaches in Ecuador are higher than the Himalayas. Though massive, the Himalayas are surprisingly

So what, exactly, is political psychology? A simple answer is also a pretty good one: the study of mental processes that underlie political judgments and decision making. Because there are many mental processes, and to date no general framework that integrates them, a political psychologist can – must? – focus on those that seem

Who are the main players and which are their projects? 2. Let us start with the atmosphere. No one any longer believes in the fairytale according to which the air we breathe is a common good.

The concept of an interface (which you’ll read about at length in Hour 5, “Understanding Aggregations, Composites, Interfaces, and Realizations”) provides a good example. An interface is a class that just has operations and has no attributes. It’s a set of behaviors you might want to use again and again throughout your model (for reasons that become clearer in Hour 5). Instead of inventing a new element to
